Final Fantasy XIII is already out in Japan but for those of us without a full grasp of the Japanese language, we have to wait for the US and European release date which is currently set as March 9th 2010. To help ease the pain of the wait, Square Enix have today released a rather lengthy international trailer. As expected, the trailer shows off some new cut-scenes and gameplay plus we also get to hear some of the English voice acting. In true Final Fantasy fashion it is very good and unlike most Japanese RPGs the voices are not immensely camp or cheesy.

Oh and yes, the song you hear playing in the background is sung by Leona Lewis. Her previously announced involvement in the games soundtrack wasn’t some cruel joke!
